Description

  • French oak
  • Blackberry
  • Nutmeg
  • Chalky tannins

Aromatics of rich blackberry fruits and spice, lifted with perfume. The palate is deep with black currant, and mulberry, subtle oak provides a hint of chocolate and nutmeg. Chalky varietal tannins give classical framework and weight to the wine which finishes with integrated fruit and oak driving a long finish.

An exceptional vintage with ideal growing conditions and outstanding quality fruit! A later start to the vintage due to a mild summer facilitating a longer ripening period and a lovely balance in red wines. Dry conditions through summer resulted in small berries and thick skins in reds. Intense aromatics and bold flavours are a characteristic of the 2021 Coonawarra vintage.

Sourced from a number of vineyards in Limestone Coast across a number of microclimates – providing a good blend of expressive fruit, structure and high note aromatics. Primarily machine picked before vinification in a combination of small and large open fermenters. The majority of the blend is matured in stainless steel with a component aged in new and one-year old French oak.

The southern hairy-nose wombat is smaller than other wombats but is stocky, robust and the proud state emblem of South Australia. Like the might of the little wombat, Little Giant is crafted from premium regional South Australian fruit from established vineyards that deliver character and interest well above their size and weight. Hand-crafted and made with minimal additions and preservatives, these are wines made of the vineyard. The grapes are picked at optimal ripeness, minimally handled in the winery and fruit vibrancy is not hidden by non-essential artefact. Seeking first and foremost fruit expression, drinkability and to be a great accompaniment to food. Don’t let the size fool you, these are wines you’ll want to drink.

Food Pairing: Perfect with Roast leg of lamb and Dutch carrots.
